To revert your iPhone 5 from iOS 9 to iOS 8.4.1, you first need to download the correct firmware file. You can find all the iPhone firmware files at this link: www.iclarified.com/750/where-to-download-iphone-firmware-files-from. Once there, look for the iPhone 5 section and select the iOS 8.4.1 IPSW. Please keep in mind that Apple typically stops signing older firmware versions shortly after a new version is released. If Apple is no longer signing iOS 8.4.1, you will not be able to restore to it via iTunes unless you have previously saved SHSH blobs for that device.
